The Pokemon Legends Arceus map is looking to be a pretty hefty one, and its setting is entirely new for the franchise. The Hisui Region is the location of Pokemon Legends Arceus, the land that is yet to become the Sinnoh region that we know and love - but there's every chance that this world is much, much different. So, what exactly do we know about Hisui so far? Here's everything we know about the Pokemon Legends Arceus map.

Let's start with the one area of civilisation we know about in Pokemon Legends Arceus - Jubilife Village. Long-time Pokemon fans will remember Jubilife City from Diamond & Pearl, so it's safe to assume that Jubilife Village is how the iconic Sinnoh city began.

Jubilife Village will be your base during Pokemon Legends Arceus, as you link up with the Galaxy Expedition team and some other Pokemon Legends Arceus characters to complete the first ever Pokemon Legends Arceus Pokedex. From the trailer, it looks like Jubilife Village has one river running through it with a number of houses, farmland, and a huge town hall with two Magikarp statues adorned on the front corners.

Mt. Coronet, the focal point of Sinnoh from the Gen 4 games, obviously existed way back during the time period Pokemon Legends Arceus is set, and no matter where you are on the map, you can see the snowy top.

Various biomes and types of land surround the mountain, including sprawling plains, luscious forests, sunny beaches, and snowy taigas. We can especially see from the map above that the south-west, where Jubilife Village is located, is full of grass and rivers. The north-west on the other hand, like in Diamond & Pearl, is incredibly snowy and will probably be the harshest area of the map. Meanwhile, the entire eastern side looks to be full of beaches, swamps, and hilly terrain.

A cloud obscures the very top of Mt. Coronet and our suspicious is that's where the titular character, Arceus, can be found. Whether you can reach the top and battle Arceus from the get-go however is yet to be seen.

That's about as much as we can deduce from the Pokemon Legends Arceus trailers we've seen so far, but if the map looks too daunting, worry not. One mechanic in the game that is sure to alleviate that issue is the ability to ride on certain Pokemon, including Hisuian Braviary, that can fly wherever it likes.

That's our guide to the Pokemon Legends Arceus map - it looks pretty extensive, so we're excited to dive in and see what Hisui has in store for us!
